Bücher von J.B. Williams

This book is about how electronics, computing, and telecommunications have profoundly changed our lives - the way we work, live, and play. Today our lives are ruled by electronics as they control the home and computers dominate the workspace.

The Electric Century examines how we got from then to now. The nineteenth is often described as the century of steam from the impact it had on employment and transport, and The Electric Century makes a similar claim as the description of the twentieth.
